Verdict — RTX 3060
Aged surprisingly well because of that VRAM. Cheap on the used market and still competent for 1080p. Local LLM/Stable Diffusion crowd loves it for the VRAM/price ratio.
Verdict — RX 7800 XT
Best price-per-frame at 1440p for its generation. FSR is workable, RT is passable but not why you'd buy it. Very popular pick with informed budget builders.
